LISTEN CAREFULLY !

    " Be careful therefore how you listen..."  Luke 8:18. Words do not only have the efficacy to colour our thoughts; with their forceful potency, they simulate and propel our Spirits into a certain direction. Whereas some words deepen our fears, others expand our faith depending on their source. God-originated Words do not only invigorate us with His POWER; they also never disappoint when we live them out. So we are charged from our opening verse to listen to God alone. And when we do, we must also understand Him so we can aptly effect His Words. Here's the reason for the failure of some prophecies -  The Prophet of God might be mistaking another voice for God's voice or he misinterpretes what he actually heard God say leading to an erroneous application. It's the reason why James says, " be quick to listen but slow to speak". James 1:19. Ezekiel, the Prophet of God, full of this wisdom, would never prophesy until God first commanded him. And when he di...

SENSES OF THE SPIRIT !

    ” But solid food is for the [spiritually] mature, whose senses are trained by practice to distinguish between what is morally good and what is evil. “ Heb 5:14 AMP It’s an emphatic truth that God doesn’t only offer us His direct Voice and Visions. He also speaks and reveals through His creatures – living or inanimate. Yet, we cannot grab the import of these messages without the spiritual ability of perceiving, understanding and discerning them. There’s, therefore, the need for identifying and sharpening each of our five spiritual senses ! ( Psa 19:1‭-‬4 ) THE SENSE OF HEARING: “He who has an ear, let him hear what The Spirit says to the churches… ” Revelations 2:7. With this spiritual sense you are able to identify and discern the voice and sounds of God, angels, demonic spirits, and the sounds of activities in the spiritual realm. When your sense of hearing opens, you hear sounds while men hear noise. However, God’s not the only source of these voices; the...

LIVE FOR GOD !

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it (LUKE 9:24) A certain man counceled his Christian son against being too industrous for God. This man's fear was that his dear son could lose his life serving Jesus Christ and preaching the Gospel. But the son replied, “Dad, I’m only doing what Jesus said I should do; I’m serving Him with my life.”  The man took offence at that and asked back, “You’re doing what Jesus said you should do? That’s why He died young; at thirty-three! They killed Him!” Like that man, there’re many who neither understand Christ’s purpose, nor the meaning of life. It’s not how long you live; it’s about the life you live.   The truth is, for such people, the issue really isn’t that they want to live long or want their loved ones to live long. If that were the case, God promised them eternity; their real problem is the fear of death.   As long as the fear of death possesses...

THE BENEFITS OF SERVING GOD !

 


” There is profit in all labour but…”

Proverbs 14:23

Our opening scripture says there’s profit in every labour. That’s why He says, ” Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might;…” Afterall, you’ll prosper in everything you do. But the Bible points out that he that’s from above is above all. Thus, one can equally assert that the labour from above is above all other earthly labour. The paragraphs below prove the superiority of kingdom roles over earthly professions.
( Ecclesiastes 9:10, John 3:31 )

FAVOUR & PEACE.
“The blessing of Jehovah, it maketh rich; And he addeth no sorrow therewith…”
Proverbs 10:22.

Peace is never found in wealth. Only God gives true divine peace. Accompanying the FAVOUR of God due to our continued submission to him, is Peace. Peace is the condition of The human Spirit that secures, sustains and multiplies the BLESSING. It comes as a result of our righteousness. And righteousness is the reward of FAVOUR.

JOY
“The seventy-two returned with joy and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name.”
Luke 10:17.

Happiness is for a moment, but Joy lasts forever. The latter was the portion of the disciples after they’d carried out their kingdom assignment. And that shall be our reward too if we do. Joy begets LIGHT. Now when Apostle Paul made this discovery for which he was able to do so much exploits, he handed it over to us, saying, ” rejoice in The Lord “.
( Philipians 4:4 & Isaiah 12:3 )

LONGEVITY & SECURITY.
” If they listen and serve him,
they’ll finish their lives in prosperity
and their years will be pleasant. ” Job 36:11

It’s an undeniable fact that no service in the world has been able to offer this package to her employees. This is because no man can provide life, true lasting peace and good health except God. It’s neither in wealth nor is it in affiliations. And this what The Lord Jesus means when He said, ” Life is not measured by how much you own. “
( Exodus 23:26, Luke 12:15 )

Beloved, God loves business and other forms of work. But let’s endeavor to complement our carreers with kingdom tasks. That way, we will obtain priceless and unpurchasable benefits.
And irrespective of the particular role each of is play for The Lord , there’s a reward awaiting us according our works. So let’s not grow weary in doing good.
